Jasper and Monty explained how well the shop was doing while the four of them sat down, and Bellamy was told Kane, the owner of their garage, sent his wishes. Apparently he'd agreed to let the boys go today under the condition they stop making 'rib jokes'. Clarke wasn't sure she wanted to know what they were.
"What's the hospital been like?" Jasper asked and Bellamy took a fleeting glance at Clarke.
"Surprisingly, I've liked it. The people are nice. Doctors are strict and the food sucks since I stopped getting my pudding cups." Clarke laughed and although Jasper and Monty looked confused, they both laughed lightly at Bellamys comments.
"So guys, the great mystery Blake hasn't told me much about you two."
"Well. We both obviously work with Bellamy and are better than him at his job." Monty began.
"We both love electronics and we're actually room mates too so we work on projects together." Jasper continued and Clarke thought it was cute they carried on the same ideas.
"Jasper here spends too long in the bathroom." Monty joked and Jasper pushed him playfully.
"Montys basically trashed our flat recently. He's trying, and failing to build up earpieces for gaming. He doesn't like the shop ones, he's such a genius he can do it better than the proffesionals." Jasper pushed Monty back with his hip so they were sat dead next to each other at the table. Clarke noticed both of them had one hand under the table, and she bet they were entwined under there. She thought they seemed very sweet together.
"I didn't wanna bring it up, but Clarke yes, I am a genius." Monty said.
Bellamy decided to interupt them "Both of you are practical geniuses. Tell them about college.". The two look embarrassed.
"Um, Monty and I are actually in night college right now both getting a degree in chemistry."
"That's awesome. Wait, why didn't you go to college before?" Clarke asked and noticed all three of the boys grinned.
"Sadly we were caught with illegal substances on campus so they booted our asses." Monty said putting his hands up like he'd been caught.
"Yeah. We've been clean ever since. Biggest mistake of our lives." Clarke wasn't sure quite what to say. If the two really were as smart as Bellamy said, it was a shame they made a stupid choice.
"So neither of you know what Bellamy did to end up here do you?" Clarke couldn't resist.
"No." They spoke in unison. The three of them looked at Bellamy who simply shrugged. Clarke decided not to mention that Bellamy had volunteered to show Clarke whatever he had to show her.
"So why are you down here then? I'm guessing this isn't your room." Monty looked around at the waiting area. Clarke looked down at her hands sadly.
"Our friend is having surgery right now. She's only young so we wanted to be here." Bellamy explained.
"This is the waiting room, its normally used for families." Clarke added and the pair of boys nodded.
"She's got another few hours in surgery, then it'll take a while for her to come around yet." Monty and Jasper looked worried, but a little surprised. Clarke supposed the timing indicated a serious procedure.
"Tell you guys what, there's a coffee shop right down the road, we'll go grab us all some drinks and some breakfast as you'll be in for a long day." Jasper suggested and Monty agreed.
"Thanks guys, that would be great." Bellamy said and they headed off pretty quickly, feeling like they were intruding on a personal time for Bellamy and Clarke.
"I'm sorry if you're a bit uncomfortable with them here." Bellamy apologized.
"Don't be silly, I like them. They seemed like a cute couple too." Bellamy's eyes practically doubled in size he widened them so much. He looked so utterly shocked that if forced Clarke to laugh even if she tried to stifle it. "You can't be surprised. Bellamy, they were holding hands together. Did you see the way they were together? How is this a surprise to you?"
"I...I just guessed they were good friends. I mean they've been friends for years. They live together.." Bellamy looked like he was trying to wrap his head around the idea of the two of them dating. "Well, good for them." He added.
Bellamy recalled his best memories of Jasper and Monty to Clarke who liked hearing them. She liked hearing about Bellamy's past, and Jasper and Monty provided some very funny memories. Apparently Monty once burnt off Jasper's eyebrows experimenting with chemicals in the sink and forgetting to tell Jasper about it. And Jasper once left his electrical crap out all over the floor, not unlike Raven did, and Monty stepped on it and still has a scar on his foot from the burn he got. Jasper had forgotten to turn the thing off and it had practically boiled on the floor.
The boys came back through the door, and Clarke checked Bellamy's facial expression when the two turned up holding hands, Monty carrying a container full of coffee and Jasper carrying a bag of food in his other hand. Bellamy couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"What the hell guys? You finally both get into a relationship and it seems like I'm the last to know." He burst out and the two just laughed.
"We didn't think it was that bigger deal. Wait, you thought we were gonna get together?" Monty asked.
"No. I thought you'd be in different relationships honestly. Jasper's been so obsessed with my sister, I thought it would never happen for him though." Jasper looked outraged.
"You knew?" He exclaimed and now it was Monty and Bellamy's chance to laugh.
"Yes. Was it a secret? 'Oh Octavia, you look so pretty today. Oh Octavia, I think you're so cool. Oh Octavia, I wanna have your babies!" Bellamy mocked. Jasper turned bright red and Monty hugged him from the side.
"Come on mate, you were hardly subtle." Monty pointed out.
"Fine. But I'm over her." Jasper pointed out and stared with a huge goofy smile on his face at Monty who still hadn't let go of Jasper's middle.
"So, catch me up here man, when did this even happen? How did it happen? Last time I checked, neither of you had some raging crush on the other." Bellamy pointed out, and now it was Monty's chance to look embarrassed.
"Well actually mate.." He trailed off and Bellamy's eyebrows shot up.
"Great." Bellamy muttered. "Something else I didn't know." He shot a look at Clarke who'd been watching the entire conversation with a bemused grin on her face.
"Look, we would have told you, but it only happened like two weeks ago and you've been in here. There wasn't a lot of opportunity."
"Oh, so is there a story?" Clarke chipped in. "Let's hear in then. Please?"
